Why Mana?

Everything Your Body Needs

Our complete meal solutions contain 42 essential nutrients that give you everything you need to stay healthy in the face of life's daily challenges.

Rocket Science? No.

Nutritional Science? Absolutely.

The composition of Mana is based on clinical studies conducted by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and the World Health Organization (WHO), proprietary clinical studies conducted in cooperation with Charles University in Prague, and experience in clinical medicine.

Nearly every year, we update our recipe in accordance with the latest findings in science, as well as feedback from customers. We are currently serving Mark 7—the 7th incarnation of Mana since 2014. The entire Mark 7 lineup can be found here.

An Unfair Advantage

42 Essential Nutrients

Essential nutrients are those that our bodies cannot create on their own, and which are indispensable to proper bodily function and metabolism. They must be consumed in proper amounts every day through food. Mana contains 42 essential nutrients in the perfect amounts.

Go Ahead. Flex.

6 Types of Protein

The unique combination of proteins in Mana supports the growth and regeneration of muscles. One serving of ManaPowder™ delivers 21 g while one serving of ManaDrink™ delivers 17 g. Both contain all essential amino acids in balanced proportions. This protein comes from 6 different sources: soy, peas, oats, hemp, rice, and algae.

6 Types of Fat

Mana's healthy fats help regulate cholesterol and give energy for your body and brain. In our unique lipid blend, you'll find seaweed oil rich in omega-3 fatty acids, as well as fats from sunflower, canola, flaxseed and oat oils, and phospholipids from soy lecithin. A completely new source, which is not found in such high quality in any other nutritionally complete food, is coconut MCT C8 oil with a pure content (99%) of caprylic acid triglycerides.

The unique blend of vegetable oils in Mana is a source of important fat-soluble vitamins and valuable phytonutrients such as vitamin E, phytosterols or lutein. 

Mana delivers a beneficial 2:1 ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids.

Go With Your Gut 

8 Types of Fibre

In one portion ManaPowder you find 7 g and in ManaDrink 4.4 g of fibre, which will support the growth and function of gut bacteria. Mark 7 contains a balanced amount of soluble and insoluble fibre from 8 valuable sources, including oat fibre with a significant beta-glucan content, as well as pea, carrot and chicory fibre, also known as inulin.

Biocatalytic Igniter. Boom.

14 Essential Vitamins

In the human body, vitamins function as biocatalysts and antioxidants. They play a role in the metabolism of protein, fat, and carbs, as well as the reabsorption of minerals.

Mana, thanks to its complete spectrum of 14 essential vitamins, is a perfectly balanced multivitamin in unconventional form. These vitamins are: vitamin A, vitamin B12 (which animal-free diets often lack), 7 other B-group vitamins, and vitamins C, D2/D3, E, K1, and K2.

The Backbone of Being

17 Essential Minerals

Minerals are vital for optimal performance of the human body. They play a key role in metabolism, tissue construction, brain function, muscle activity, and so much more.

Our Mark 7 recipe delivers 17 essential minerals and trace elements that your body needs for optimal performance, as well as new, chelated forms of magnesium (magnesium lactate), potassium (potassium citrate), and zinc (zinc gluconate), which are even more soluble.

Mana also contains another 7 trace minerals, which occur naturally in food.

Ultimate Carbs for Braniacs

Low Glycemic Index

Thanks in part to its combination of simple and complex carbohydrates, Mana has a low glycemic index (29), which means that it causes a steady rise and fall of blood glucose levels over time, for gradual release of energy. Low-GI foods greatly reduce the risk of diseases like obesity and diabetes.

A Profile for Modern Endeavors

21st-Century Macros

Carbs, lipids, and proteins are macronutrients, i.e. nutrients which must be consumed in large amounts for proper bodily function. Of the total energy content in ManaPowder™, protein accounts for 22%, lipids account for 44%, and carbohydrates account for 34%. The ratio in ManaDrink™ is practically the same. This ratio is based on EFSA recommendations and the latest clinical studies in nutrition.

Subatomically Perfect

Designed to Enhance

Disaccharides from white beet

IIsomaltulose, also known as Palatinose, is a disaccharide that helps keep Mana's glycemic index low (29), thus reducing the risk of heart disease and diabetes. Foods containing isomaltulose help regulate blood glucose levels better than foods containing sugar.

Lipids from flaxseed

Flaxseed oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, which, among other things, protect the brain against ageing. The flaxseed oil used in Mana is both organic and cold-pressed. And thanks to special oxygen-exclusion technology, we avoid any unwanted peroxidation. Flaxseed oil contains the highest concentration of omega-3 fatty acids of all vegetable oils.

Oligosaccharides from corn

Corn helps deliver quick energy to the body and, in combination with the other ingredients in Mana, contributes to smooth digestion. In addition to being a source of pure and well-structured carbohydrates, corn gives Mana a pleasant consistency and mild sweetness.

Lecithin from soy

Soy lecithin is a source of the valuable nutrient choline, which improves memory and may help fight symptoms of dementia. Thanks to its emulsifying and stabilising properties, it is an essential component of Mana.

Lipids from coconut

Unique among natural oils. Coconut C8 MCT oil with 99% caprylic acid content provides the whole body and brain with fast-acting energy, without any fatigue. Pure C8 caprylic acid provides a quick energy boost and is up to 6 times more potent than regular MCT oil! In addition, MCT improves nutrient absorption, stimulates metabolism and reduces hunger, so it also aids weight loss.
